In celebration of the 25th anniversary of the film Demolition Man, Taco Bell featured an exclusive San Diego Comic-Con exhibit that recreated the futuristic Taco Bell from the film. For those that have not seen the film, Demolition Man presents a utopian future with incredible technology and Taco Bell as the only surviving restaurant in 2032. This is the world the futuristic Taco Bell exhibit tried to mirror and did so by including a plethora of neon futuristic design elements and a special menu that riffs off its current offerings.
The San Diego Comic-Con exhibit featured a four-course menu. free Baja Blasts on entry, and a bar featuring four drinks. Guests at the futuristic Taco Bell were also served a four-course meal of small bites that combined what Demolition Man prophesied for the restaurant with the current offerings Taco Bell has. The items featured on the menu included Joy-Joy Hors D'Oeuvres, Crunchwrap Supreme Leader, Franchise Freedom Fries and Cinnamon Helix Confection.
